The girls are thriving in both tents, really exciting watching them grow week by week. I'll do one last defoliation on the gorilla cookies this week to try to open up the inner branches.

Really enjoyed growing this strain, she smells so good and the pre cure smoke was wonderful. I'm really excited to taste the finished product! Hey flavor profile is a mix of sweet abd a tropical/citrus mix. The high is long lasting and hours really well. Will DEFINITELY grow this strain again in 2023!

It's harvest time!!! Unable to complete the questions about weight until after it dries and i trim the plant, but she seems like at least 5.5 oz based on experience maybe more! It's been a joy watching her develop and I'm really excited for the next run!
